Tahleta kniha udeří čtenáře jako sovětsko-ruská rána pěstí. Chvíli trvá, než se člověk vzpamatuje z toho, že vidí svět jejich očima. Ale taky díky ní mnohem líp pochopíte, co se děje dnes. Určitě stojí za přečtení.

Více o knize
When the Swedish Academy awarded Svetlana Alexievich the Nobel Prize, it recognized her for creating “a new kind of literary genre,” describing her work as “a history of emotions — a history of the soul.” Alexievich’s unique documentary style combines individual monologues with a collage of voices, capturing the stories of ordinary people often overlooked in official histories. In this work, she chronicles the decline of communism through the eyes of everyday Russian citizens, recounting their experiences over the past thirty years. The narratives reveal life during the fall of the Soviet Union and the realities of contemporary Russia. Through interviews conducted from 1991 to 2012, Alexievich goes beyond propaganda and media portrayals, offering a comprehensive view of a nation grappling with memories of oppression, terror, famine, and massacres, alongside pride and hope for the future. This account reflects the aftermath of an ideology that once dominated a significant portion of the world. A masterful tapestry of human sorrows and triumphs, it reveals the true history of a nation. As noted by The Nation, Alexievich’s work explores human nature, dreams, choices, and the complexities of good and evil, ultimately reflecting on our shared humanity.
